Make your offer easy to understand
Start with the questions a new customer brings: What do you do? Who is it for? Where do you work? How can they speak with you? Put those answers near the beginning of the page, in everyday language.
A headline should describe your service, not make visitors decode a slogan. Follow it with a short explanation and one main action. If you serve a particular area or work by appointment, make that clear before someone contacts you.
Give each page a useful job
Plan the pages around customer decisions. A homepage introduces the offer; a service page explains the work; a process page sets expectations; a pricing page explains costs and scope; and a contact page makes the next step straightforward.
You do not need a page for every idea. Combine closely related information, and only add a page when it answers a distinct question. A smaller site with specific content is more useful than a larger site full of repeated promises.
Make getting in touch straightforward
Choose a primary action that matches how you work: book a conversation, request an appointment, or send an enquiry. Keep its label consistent so visitors know what to expect when they click.
- Explain whether a form sends a message or prepares an email draft.
- Ask only for the details your team needs to start the conversation.
- Offer a visible email address as an alternative.
- Check that booking and enquiry links work on a phone.
If you do not sell directly online, there is no need to add a cart or checkout. Clear information and a reliable contact route can support a conversation-led business.
Keep your brand clear on every screen
Your logo, colours, tone, and illustrations should feel connected. Use a small set of colour roles rather than changing the palette in every section. Give text enough room, and choose images that help explain the neighbouring content.
Review the actual mobile experience: can someone read your offer without zooming, open the menu, and reach the contact action? Desktop polish matters, but a customer may first discover your business while standing outside or between appointments.
Plan for the work after launch
Services, opening hours, prices, and team details change. Decide who checks that information and how updates will be requested. Ask what hosting, maintenance, revisions, and larger changes are included in your agreement.
Botify’s Business Website service includes a custom five-page site, hosting, maintenance, and ongoing support at $100 per month. We agree on the scope before work starts; additional pages or features are discussed separately.
